<h3>How is it made?</h3>

<p>the server box is running debian and the platform is apache tomcat with java 1.6. </p>
<p>Our database is simply an hsqldb instance. The website is developed using jsp without any framework.</p>
<p>Our favorite IDE is vim and also eclipse. 
<p>To fetch music information we created an index on a MusicBrainz database using Lucene. </p>
<p>Tags information is provided by audioscrobbler. </p>
<p>The images are provieded by Amazon. The musictrends plugin for winamp was developed in c++. <p>

This about idea was stolen from pownce.
